This weekend the home of British esports, the Gfinity Arena, will host a titanic showdown between Counter-Strike: Global Offensive greats. The CS:GO Spring Masters include world-renowned teams Cloud 9, Team Orbit, Team Envyus, Ninjas in Pyjamas, Virtus.Pro, Gamers2 and Team Infused, who are flying in to battle for a $50,000 prize pool at the UK's first dedicated esports arena in London. How would you like to witness the action first-hand?
The event kicks off on Friday evening and runs all day Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are available now from just £12.50 and grant you access to the action at the Gfinity Arena at Vue Fulham Broadway. It's a great chance to share the drama of an intense CS:GO competition with a crowd of Counter-Strike aficionados, and to witness the birth of a big new fixture on the CS:GO circuit.
The arena features three custom-built stages with comfy seats for 600 spectators – the perfect environment to relax and absorb the spectacle. The arena is designed to support all kinds of gaming competition, and the CS:GO Spring Masters is just one in a series of exciting upcoming fixtures in the coming months. Keep an eye out for the StarCraft II Spring masters later this month, the Call of Duty open in April and tense tactical card combat in the Hearthstone Spring Masters 2 later in April.
If you can't make it down to London this weekend, there's no need to miss a shot. You can keep up with all the action on Gfinity's dedicated Twitch channel, where you'll also find recordings of all the action from recent Hearthstone Spring Masters and more live coverage of Gfinity's upcoming events. With $50,000 on the line, there's no substitute for seeing the real thing close up, however. Grab your tickets now!
